Left Behind By The World

"Let's all, I have a lot of fun you guys!"

Magus jumps up and down as they walk into a carnival full of people.

It is rare for a group of children to be able to have fun at such a time of day, considering there is always war going on.

"Shut up, Magus, you always seem the most excited for these things, and I don't get why."

Magus smiles, he looks at his friend Ned, who is clearly upset at the moment.

"Don't let life get you down simply because there is tragedy going on. The fact we have the peace we have today, and the ability to be able to be together with everyone having fun, means the most to me, so how could I not smile?"

"Peace! The fact you can even call this peace! I'll have you know that everyone here is just blind to what's going on Magus."

Magus looks at Ned in confusion, Ned stares at him with an angry, and hateful look in his eye. Noza looks at Magus as well, with the same hateful look, but this time mixed with sadness.

"Magus, is there something you are keeping away from us? You try to hide it behind a smile but we were able to tell once we got here."

"What...are you guys talking about? I wouldn't hide anything from you. Seriously, can we just enjoy the carnival?"

Magus's look now turns from happy to extremely scared as the other two continue to watch him. The carnival continues on as the people cheer for the parade going on at the moment. Magus's stomach growls as he becomes hungry and decides to get up to go purchase some food.

"Magus, let me go with you. I'm also feeling hungry myself. I'll pay for my own stuff, don't worry about it."

Noza and Magus both get up and walk to one of the food stands, but Noza walks fast ahead of Magus. She gets to the banquet server, and as Magus walks closer, he becomes more concerned, noticing that Noza is looking in his direction with a disgusted look. He finally gets there, and notices the banquet server looking at him with a scared look.

"Little boy, could you show me your arm?"

"W-why...I don't feel comfortable doing that sir, I'm sorry. I would just like to place my order and leave please.

The server doesn't move though, as he keeps the same horrified look on his face. Noza turns and tries to grab Magus's arm, but she feels her hand begin to bleed.

"This! This is what I'm talking about, sir. Magus, what is this, and why does my hand bleed whenever I grab your arm?"

Magus makes a look of pure hopelessness. He runs away, and instantly tries to leave the carnival but is stopped by Ned.

"Now that I think about it, you've been lying about having parents in general. You continue to lie to us about everything Magus, and this is where I draw the line."

"Ned...Noza, please just let me go! I want to go home, we can talk tomorrow guys. Goodbye!"

As Magus tries to reach the exit, he is stopped by the server. Magus tries to run the other way but realizes he is stopped on all sides.

"Magus...I'm afraid we can't be your friends anymore. You keep lying, and now this is becoming concerning."

Magus begins to cry, he tries to think of something to say, but he simply can't because of how scared he is.

"I won't lie anymore! I won't make any of you worry anymore. But please...don't leave my side, you guys are my only friends."

"Stop saying that! We are not your friends anymore Magus. You aren't even worth calling an acquaintance."

Magus falls to the ground and begins to start breathing heavy. The server walks up to him to try and see if he's okay.

"Hey! Young man, just relax okay. I'm calling the police. Stay calm, and control your breathing, the police will handle this situation."

"No they won't!"

Magus puts his hand in the stomach of the server, and he explodes, spewing out huge amounts of blood.

"Ned, Noza! Please get out of here before I end up killing both of you right now. That is all the generosity I can offer you before I end up completely losing my mind."

Noza and Ned ended up running off, but it wasn't too long before Magus ended up losing full control of himself. Magus begins to rush at Noza and Ned at full speed, murdering countless of screaming civilians in his path.

"Please! Magus! Stay away from us! I don't wanna die, I'm sorry okay. We'll be your friend, we can help you."

"You two are nothing more than hypocrites, how dare you lie to me after all the things you've said? You aren't going to help me!"

Magus catches up to Noza, and grabs her neck, instantly exploding her head. Ned looks concerned, but he keeps running anyways, and eventually Magus catches up to him and pounces on him.

"Do it! Kill me and prove my point. That this peace you spoke of is nothing more than a lie."

Magus tries to attack him, but he stops himself, and Magus begins to cry. He jumps off of Ned and runs away fast enough that nobody was able to spot him.

"Everyone! We can't let that boy run havoc among the city of Lancaster. If you see that boy, don't approach him, simply contact the authorities."

Ned looks up and sees Noza's dead body and throws up. He gets up and notices that Magus dropped the necklace that he had purchased for him.

"Magus, so all this time, the person I called my best friend wasn't even a human. Why couldn't you just have told the truth, I would have accepted you."

As Magus exits through the carnival, he begins to wreak havoc, murdering everyone in his path. At the same time, Magus has tears flowing down his bloodstained face.

'Why, have I completely lost control? I feel like a spectator in my own body. Noza, ned, I'm so sorry that I hurt both of you. I don't deserve anything but death at this point, but it's like I'm not even in control of myself! What the hell is wrong with me!"

As Magus continues to terrorize the city of Lancastor. A boy on the roof of one of the buildings is staring down at Magus.

"I found him! He's exiting the Lancaster carnival currently. He's filled with servus power! It's on the same level as mine."

Magus takes a look at the boy and instantly leaps at him. The boy on the roof takes out a katana and slices Magus in his stomach, but he instantly regenerates. The boy quickly jumps to one of the other buildings, as he's quickly followed by Magus.

"He has the properties of regeneration as well? This most certainly won't be a easy fight at all. Alright devil, you may be flowing with power and overwhelming ability! But let's see if power can match up with skill."

The two leap at each other as their battle commences.
